Nice card Craig . . . most Des Moines OJs are 1889 (Fc) with the 1888s being pretty special. Most 1888s are the very tough Fb style, Swartwood being the only Des Moines player as type Fa (nice misspelling to boot). The fact that it is a team update may be responsible for format difference from the other 1888 Des Moines cards.
